Since she met her boyfriend Martin, at the recreation centre where they are choir members, they have been inseparable. However, because they are “different,” their loved ones are fearful of their relationship. As the choir prepare for an important music festival, Gabrielle does everything she can to gain her independence. As determined as she is, Gabrielle must still confront other people’s prejudices as well as her own limitations in the hope of experiencing a love far from the “ordinary”.

Originally there was the desire to talk about happiness, the happiness of marginalised people, who are in a way “invisible,” and the strength that art, such as music - especially choral singing - can provide them. There was also a wish to portray a love story between two young adults with intellectual disabilities; how they experience their love and sexuality, how this emotional awakening suddenly provokes in them a desire for independence and a quest for autonomy. One of the triggers for this idea was a segment on the television show Enjeux about a foster family for people with intellectual disabilities (Une famille particulière, broadcast on Radio-Canada in 2004). I was impressed by the social service worker Jean-Martin Lefebvre-Rivest, who was the inspiration for the character portrayed by the actor Benoit Gouin. I approached Jean-Martin and told him about my idea for a film. We saw each other regularly, I spent time in his residence in order to experience his daily life and that of the disabled, and he introduced me to a few organizations active in this area. He also brought me to the famous Friday night dance that two hundred disabled adults attend every week, which by the way was where we filmed the karaoke and dance scenes in the film with the real crowd of regulars. In my opinion, what makes Jean-Martin special is that he does not infantilise disabled people. Instead, he provides them with tools to develop their potential and facilitate their integration into society. For example, he organizes trips outside of the city, or he makes sure to give daily responsibilities to each resident which helps to reduce their outbursts and anxiety. In short, I had the desire to share the unique reality of Jean-Martin and his residents. During my research, several people with disabilities inspired me, as did the organisation Young Musicians of the World (we filmed a few scenes in their school in India), and also certain choirs with social missions supported by a variety of NGOs around the world. My meetings with music therapists and various people who work with the disabled also helped me to develop my characters and story. I wanted to be true, to be real. What they said greatly inspired me. GABRIELLE | press kit | August 2013 5 How did you find Gabrielle and the organization Les Muses who we see in the film? I went to a play by the company Joe Jack et John that included an actor with an intellectual disability (Michael Nimbley, who has a role as a resident in the film). I discovered that he was a member of Les Muses, a stage arts centre that offers professional training in song, dance, and theatre, to people living with intellectual disabilities, pervasive developmental disorders or physical and sensory challenges. The goal is to turn these people into professionals without denying their limits. I frequented the centre for over a year, which shaped the rewriting of my script. I was floored! This experience helped me visualize the film I wanted to make. Not only do these people live in the present moment, their will is something to witness. It was a pleasure to be in contact with these students. They impressed me with their incredible energy, their talent and their imagination. I was especially charmed by Gabrielle Marion-Rivard. Her radiance, charisma, and authenticity made me want to follow her. Did you know right away that you wanted to shoot the film with them? I continued to write the script with the Muses students in mind. Amongst other things this helped me to define the main character’s disability, Williams syndrome, which Gabrielle Marion-Rivard has, and which predisposes its sufferers to possess musical talent and perfect pitch. When it was time to cast, we wondered if she could handle the lead role and carry the film. Since Gabrielle’s strength is singing and not acting, I did acting and improvisation workshops with her. She knew that she might not get the part, but she wanted to try and explore the possibility. Gabrielle is radiant and the producers and myself came to the conclusion that a professional actress probably wouldn’t have the same authenticity and spontaneity: the role was hers. We spent a lot of time with her and the other actors preparing her for the role and eventually the shoot. I accepted that neither her acting nor her approach to the work would be perfect. My instinct told me to “let go” in order to enable the truth of her actions and reactions to come to the surface, but we still had to face reality. Gabrielle’s disability makes her acting very theatrical, so on film it can appear fake.

Emma’s comic tells the story of Edward, a cocky film director with a debilitating secret about his anatomy. The director, Edward, creates a film that features Michelle, an aspiring novelist who escapes to Brazil and abandons her former life as a model. Michelle, pens a novel that tells the tale of Emma, who works at an artificial love doll factory… And so it goes..

  • Song and Nationalism in Quebec
    Song and Nationalism in Quebec [originally published in Contemporary French Civilization, Volume XXIV, No. 1, Spring /Summer 2000] The québécois national mythology is dependent on oral culture for sustenance. This orality, while allowing a popular transmission of central concepts, also leaves the foundations of a national francophone culture exposed to influence by the anglophone forces that dominate world popular culture. A primary example is song, which has been linked to a nationalist impulse in Quebec for over thirty years. What remains of that linkage today? Economic, cultural, political and linguistic pressures have made the role of song as an ethnic and national unifier increasingly ambiguous, and reflect uncertainties about the Quebec national project itself, as the Quebec economy becomes reflective of global trends toward supranational control. A discussion of nationalism must be based on a shared understanding of the term. Anthony Smith distinguishes between territorial and ethnic definitions: territorially defined nations can point to a specific territory and rule by law; ethnies, on the other hand, add a collective name, a myth of descent, a shared history, a distinctive culture and a sense of solidarity to the territorial foundation. If any element among these is missing, it must be invented. This “invention” should not be seen as a negative or devious attempt to distort the present or the past; it is part of the necessary constitution of a “story” which can become the foundation for a national myth-structure. As Smith notes: "What matters[...] is not the authenticity of the historical record, much less any attempt at 'objective' methods of historicizing, but the poetic, didactic and integrative purposes which that record is felt to disclose" (25).

  • YANA MEERZON This Essay Examines the Forms of History and Memory Representation in Incendies, the 2004 Play by Wajdi Mouawad, An
    YANA MEERZON STAGING MEMORY IN WAJDI MOUAWAD ’S INCENDIES : ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE OR POETIC VENUE ? This essay examines the forms of history and memory representation in Incendies , the 2004 play by Wajdi Mouawad, and its 2010 film version, directed by Denis Villeneuve. Incendies tells the story of a twin brother and sister on the quest to uncover the mystery of their mother’s past and the silence of her last years. A contemporary re-telling of the Oedipus myth, the play examines what kind of cultural, collective, and individual memo - ries inform the journeys of its characters, who are exilic children. The play serves Mouawad as a public platform to stage the testimony of his child - hood trauma: the trauma of war, the trauma of exilic adaptation, and the challenges of return. As this essay argues, when moved from one medium to another, Mouawad’s work forces the directors to seek its historical and geographical contextualization. If in its original staging, Incendies allows Mouawad to elevate the story of his personal suffering to the universals of abandoned childhood, to reach in its language the realms of poetic expres - sion, and to make memory a separate, almost tangible entity on stage, then the 2010 film version by Villeneuve turns this play into an archaeological site to excavate the recent history of a single war-torn Middle East country (supposedly Lebanon), an objective at odds with Mouawad’s own view of theatre as a venue where poetry meets politics. Naturally the transposition from a play to a film presupposes a significant mutation of the original and raises questions of textual fidelity.
